The problem of reduction of the wave packet of a relativistic charged particle by emission of a photon is studied with help of the path integral approach. A general expression for arbitrary order correlation function of the electromagnetic field is obtained. As a specific example an ultrarelativistic electron circulating in a storage ring is considered. It is shown that the longitudinal width o...

The nonreciprocal propagation of electromagnetic waves in ionized gaseous media is discussed, and experimental observations are reported in this paper. The classical Faraday experiment in the optics of anisotropic media has suggested an analogous phenomenon at microwave frequencies. The anisotropic behavior of the free electron gas which is immersed in a magnetic field and subjected to an incid...

Abstract. The use of relativistic quark models with simple parametric wave functions for the understanding of the electromagnetic structure of nucleons together with their electromagnetic transition to resonances is discussed. The implications of relativity in the different ways it can be implemented in a simple model are studied together with the role played by mixed symmetry s-state and D-sta...

We consider propagation of coupled waves (polaritons) formed by a scalar electromagnetic wave and excitations of a finite one dimensional chain of dipoles. It is shown that a microscopic defect (an impurity dipole) embedded in the chain causes resonance tunneling of the electromagnetic wave with the frequency within the forbidden band between two polariton branches. We demonstrate that resonanc...

The exact solutions of the equation for a composite scalar particle which possesses electric and magnetic polarizabilities are found in an external uniform static magnetic field parallel to the direction of propagation of the quantized electromagnetic wave. As a particular case, the relativistic coherent states of a particle in the field of photons were considered. When the average photon numbe...

1. Abstract The performances of the periodic surface structures (PSS) of different geometric shapes on the ground plane are studied. Simulated results with full wave electromagnetic analyses are in good agreement with those experimental data. The optimal structure of PSS bringing about the perturbation electromagnetic waves and power loss will be determined. The proposed wideband PBG microstrip...

We show both theoretically and experimentally that an electromagnetic wave can be totally absorbed by an overdense plasma when a subwavelength diffraction grating is placed in front of the plasma surface. The absorption is due to dissipation of surface plasma waves (plasmons polaritons) that have been resonantly excited by the evanescent component of the diffracted electromagnetic wave. The dev...

Starting from a relativistic phenomenology of anyons in crystals, we discuss the concept of relativistic interaction and the need to unify electromagnetism and gravitation within the Spencer cohomology of Lie equations. Then, from the sophisticated non-linear Spencer complex of the Poincaré and conformal Lie pseudogroups, we build up a non-linear relative Goldschmidt-Spencer complex assigned to...

We consider electromagnetic evasion-interrogation games wherein the evader can use ferroelectric material coatings to attempt to avoid detection while the interrogator can manipulate the interrogating frequencies (wave numbers) and angles of incidence of the interrogating inputs to enhance detection and identification. The resulting problems are formulated as two player games in which one playe...
